The Alternative Hedgehog
The Alternative Hedgehog, African pygmy hedgehogs in Providence, RI, shows meticulous care across southern New England. Crystal Brown has been breeding these hedgehogs for several years and keeps up with regional club events to stay informed on health testing protocols, genetics updates and best practices.
Each hedgehog grows up in a temperature controlled enclosure enriched with tunnels, exercise wheels and soft nesting materials. Daily handling and supervised playtime encourage gentle socialization and adaptability, while clean air filtration and quiet surroundings reduce stress. Crystal shares detailed owner guides covering nutrition, habitat setup and routine veterinary care to help new families provide a supportive environment.
Regular veterinary checkups and genetic screenings form part of a comprehensive health plan, supported by references to hedgehog welfare resources. Emphasis on balanced diets and permanent access to fresh water gives each hedgehog a strong start in life.
